Here goes a simple JAVA code to convert rupees by using the online yahoo exchange rates.
package com.oksbwn.currencyRate; import java.io.IOException; import javax.swing.JOptionPane; import org.apache.http.client.HttpClient; import org.apache.http.client.ResponseHandler; import org.apache.http.client.methods.HttpGet; import org.apache.http.impl.client.*; import com.oksbwn.popUp.popMe; public class YahooCurrencyConverter { @SuppressWarnings({ "deprecation", "resource" }) public float convert(String currencyFrom, String currencyTo) throws IOException { HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient(); HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet("http://quote.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=" + currencyFrom + currencyTo + "=X&f=l1&e=.csv"); ResponseHandler responseHandler = new BasicResponseHandler(); String responseBody = httpclient.execute(httpGet, responseHandler); httpclient.getConnectionManager().shutdown(); return Float.parseFloat(responseBody); } public void convertToRs() { String to = null; String amnt = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Any to rupee..", "$"); //if ("$".charAt(0).((); if (amnt.substring(0, 1).compareTo("$") == 0) to = "USD"; if (amnt.substring(0, 1).compareTo("E") == 0) to = "EUR"; double ghh = 1; try { ghh = Double.parseDouble(amnt.substring(1)); } catch (Exception e) {} YahooCurrencyConverter df = new YahooCurrencyConverter(); try { float x = df.convert(to, "INR"); new popMe("Exchange rate is" + x, "From " + to + " to INR", "exp", 6, 125); JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, x * ghh); } catch (IOException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } } }
